Beautiful house, originally a watchtower dating back to the 17th century, with a magnificent view over the Tuscan hills. Enjoy the view, with a glass of good wine, at any hour of the day, but above all at sunrise and sunset.
Refurbished during the centuries and recently restored, the house still preserves the traditional characteristics of a typical Tuscan country house.
The house has a large garden with gazebo, bursting with olive trees, fruit plants and flowers, as well as a swimming pool (depth 150 cm, 6x12 m, open from middle April to middle October) and a Jacuzzi (use on request). Here you can enjoy breathtaking views over the surrounding countryside, whilst relaxing in the pool or tub. Moving to a slightly lower garden level there is a charming gazebo with a 10-seat table and a barbecue, perfect for al fresco dining.
For sport lovers there is a 5-a-side football pitch, a table tennis table and the opportunity to go for lovely, long walks through the oak woods which surround the property.
